Great pic, I love the contrasting colors and same-but-different approach Neoteria and Chrysalis' garb and decorations. Kinda gives the impression that each changeling hive is a variation of the same overall culture.
The story was really interesting. I like the idea of two villains in a stable alliance, with Chrysalis being in charge and Neoteria being fine with that because it lets her take a hands on approach to things. It's a nice break from them waiting to see whose gonna betray who first, like how this kind of team up is usually shown. Also kinda liked the that the changelings are (for now) staying out of the whole NLR/SE conflict and doing their own thing.

Yes, it seems that the digital editing really helped it. The colours and contrast were not properly scanned and even without that it is still very much chaotic picture. Next time I will try to hold up on the lights and details.
Even villains need friends, no? There is no guarantee whether their intentions would stay on the same course. Still there are not many alternatives for a changeling queen. Ponies dont really provide ... long stable relationships. But perhaps even that will change and there could be more queens entering the "circle of friendship" to shake things up.
Again, getting too ahead of myself in the head. Seeing how much time it takes to make these this is going to be a long ride.

True, the changelings don't have many options. I kinda like the idea of Chrysalis working on her grand evil schemes only for Neoteria to happily burst in wanting to show off her latest loot.

I should definetly draw more pictures of them to properly depict their behaviour and possible military/sneaking methods since that is the focus here on My Lethal Ponies.

In the meantime, more Solar and Lunar pictures are on the way. Some of my markers dried out so now I have to compensate with more pencils until I get new ones. Maybe it is for the best, I need to learn how to properly distinct shades. There are some very unclear things in this picture. Perhaps its fine, since the whole obscure theme goes well with changeling secrecy.

Looking forward to whatever kinds of pics you decide to put out. You could actually slip references to the Changelings in pics about the NLR and Solar Empire, like a Changeling in pony-form standing in formation with a group of soldiers in the back round. The tell could be all green eyes, or something else.

Well, thats actually a very good idea. Shame I havent thought about this sooner. The pictures I am working on have already progressed too much, my next SE drawing is perfect for this.
Β
Thinking about it maybe I will be able to change the shading of some pair of eyes after all ... hopefully. Thanks for the idea.

Hey, who are these two changelings stuck to the pillar?

These are actually the statues of queen Chrysalis and my humble OC.
I guess it is not very clear due to the chaotic nature of this drawing and the fact that plants and flowers are used to depict their manes. Changelings dont have the necessary sculpting abilites to make them look exactly as their respected rulers I suppose ...Β or maybe I am just coming up with excuses for my poor skills.
That is for you to judge.

Thank you, I was a bit worried since it turned out rather chaotic. Though I guess the obscure look is fitting for the secretive changeling hive but not so much for the queen of changelings.
I feel I will also design a more royal and magnificent underground residence as my series progress. Something not so orderless to properly reflect her power.
I should also think about more ... uncanny depiction of her, like your avatar here. There is plotting to do and while she surely will look as lovely, it will be in a different manner.

Surely sounds very promising. I'll be definitely looking forward to seeing more.Β
(btw. I'm really glad you decided to get back to Chrysalis atm ^^)

Yes, I needed to add a third side to My Lethal Ponies. It was a toss between Discord and Chrisie, easy choice if you ask me.
You can be sure that I will be making more of changeling themed pictures, though most of them wont be featuring our dear queen. There are more aspects of the hive I would like to focus on. Not to mention my own OC and other non-MLP projects I have in mind.
Nevertheless she will certainly make an appearance. She is after all one of my most favorite characters and as I proved, I tend to return to imagining her.
